Breaking away from a single manufacturer option — Introducing agents to cut the "negative loop" in the back office.

iビジネスパートナーズ iビジネスパートナーズ
Caught up in daily data entry, approvals, and inquiries, I want to improve but can't find the time to consider it. Such voices from the field are not uncommon. Even though it's clear that systemization is necessary, the reality is that people often get stuck on where to start and which products to choose. Common frustrations include "I spent time requesting materials and demos, but I'm not sure if it fits my company," and "After implementation, the inquiry contacts are scattered among different manufacturers, making it hard to connect quickly when issues arise." This moves us further away from the original goals of efficiency and reducing dependency on individuals. This is where the option of "agent implementation" comes into focus. Agents that handle products from multiple manufacturers have the advantage of providing unbiased comparisons and neutral proposals without favoring specific products. Even within the same category of systems, they can present the pros and cons side by side for a balanced evaluation. There is also a common misconception regarding pricing; in most cases, there is little to no price difference between direct sales from manufacturers and agents. You can read more without needing to input personal information. Please visit the iBusiness Partners column page! https://ibp-column.sfsite.me/33869

[Explanatory Material] A Must-See Before Systematizing Your Business! 4 Common Failure Cases

Please be sure to introduce us to your management team and general affairs department! Are you not falling into a negative loop with your daily back-office operations?

When you start to implement a system, what do you address first? - Since you can't make a judgment based on just one company, should you request materials first? - Even just receiving a demo takes about an hour per company... - I barely understand the differences between systems, but which one actually fits my company? While managing regular operations, even after going through the effort of implementation, troubles continue to arise. - I couldn't check the support system, and now I can't call for help when I'm in trouble! - I've implemented multiple systems, but where should I ask for help when issues arise? Implementing a system requires money, time, and effort, and I absolutely don't want to fail! Here are four points to keep in mind.

[Information] The choice of "Agency Sales"

Using an agency reduces the burden on the person in charge. It allows for a neutral comparison of systems.

This document introduces the benefits of "agency sales" in system implementation. It explains the unification of system contact points, system comparisons, and other support systems during the selection of systems that become possible by utilizing agency sales. By introducing through an agency, it is possible to comprehensively consider multiple systems and proceed with a planned implementation. Please feel free to consult about the integration between systems as well. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

[To the design office] Are you struggling to explain "safety" to the client using only drawings?

  • NEW
  • CATALOG

Are you struggling to explain "safety" to the client using just drawings? • The risks in blind spots are difficult to convey to the client through drawings alone. • Safety measures often become a target for cost reduction, making it hard to communicate their necessity. • There is a concern that the client might say, "It's more dangerous than I thought," after completion. Risks that are clear to design professionals are not easily understood intuitively by clients who are outside the field. This document is not just a simple explanation of sensor functions; it is a guide to visually explain "why sensors are necessary in those locations." It can be used directly as explanatory material for clients. Here are three key points for utilizing this document: 1. Visualization of Risks Blind spots during departure and contact risks within the site are illustrated clearly. 2. Clarification of Selection Criteria A comparison table outlines the differences between complex sensor types such as infrared, ultrasonic, and loop coils. 3. Diagram of System Configuration It illustrates not just the sensors alone, but how they are combined with rotating lights and control panels, providing practical assistance for electrical equipment design. Please make use of this to prevent "rework after completion" and "accident risks."

[Free Catalog Distribution] Measures for "Near Misses" in Nursing and Care Settings. Prevent tripping and disconnection with codes! Wireless Series Bed Exit Sensors Linked to Nurse Call Systems.

  • NEW
  • CATALOG

In facilities operating nurse call systems, we have made bed exit sensors wireless, allowing them to notify in conjunction with the nurse call system. By simply connecting the mat sensor "Foldable Thin Matt-kun," the body movement call "Ugo-kun," and the wheelchair body movement call "Ayumi-chan" to the transmitter HB-RS, you can make the bed exit sensor wireless. The infrared sensor "Just Place Pole-kun" has the transmitter HB-RS built-in. This helps prevent accidents caused by falls, slips, or wandering, contributing to the efficiency of medical operations. 【Features】 ○ Wireless conversion by simply connecting existing sensors to the transmitter HB-WSK. ○ Bed exit sensors notify wirelessly in conjunction with the nurse call system. ○ Up to 5 transmitters can be registered with one receiver. ○ The communication distance between the transmitter and receiver is approximately 10 meters. ◎ For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

Full and Empty Management (Medium to Large Scale)

Parking lot occupancy management vehicle detection sensor | Hotron Co., Ltd.

  • NEW
  • PRODUCT

Full and empty management refers to the real-time display of parking availability and the management of efficient use of parking spaces. By utilizing Hotron's sensors, drivers can quickly discover available parking spaces, achieving efficient parking lot operations. ■ For large parking lots, the "floor management method" and "block management method," which focus on cost reduction, are recommended. Sensors are installed at regular intervals to count the number of vehicles passing through. This method offers the advantage of easy installation and low costs. 【Target Products】 - Vehicle Count Sensor CCS2 - Ultrasonic Sensor HM-UX2/UW2 ■ For smaller scale operations, the "space management method," which installs sensors in each parking space to display availability with high accuracy, is recommended. By ensuring accurate full and empty displays, it helps prevent unnecessary entry of new vehicles and enables safe parking lot operations. 【Target Products】 - Occupancy Detection Sensor HM-UX2/UW2 - Occupancy/Pass Detection Sensor HM-LC6 - Occupancy Detection Sensor HM-LC7/LC7-FLS - Occupancy/Pass Detection Sensor HM-S6 - Occupancy Detection Sensor HM-S8
